Over 1 mil views in a day on the youtube trailer. Rather impressive how fast it spread.

They even have windmills on them.

HOW IS 2013? ARE THERE ROBOTS AND FLYING CARS?
I feel this is a very valid question and I'd like to know as well. :<

I heard that it's more or less Windows 7 with some performance/security increases and a mobile interface.

Coal! I was bad.

I'll take the beta key if no one else wants it :D

The troubles the Ordo had in 2008 were much different.

For the empire :]
Never returning to this game. Once I hit Battlemaster, Bioware decided it was a good idea to make it easy to hit Valor level 60 a week later. So much for grinding valor for a month.
Still a wonderful experience.
3rd Image down, they were absolutely terrified of me, despite being higher geared and number. Operative was awesome to play. 4th image was when I collected the last (and most difficult) datacron. :D

Here's an interesting comparison between Austin and Dallas. Obviously don't take this completely to heart but from personal experience I support it.
http://www.traveland...llas-fort-worth
Austin is one of the fastest growing cities in the US at the moment, and as Disembodied stated it's a tech and music center. It's very scenic and in the hill country due to the colorado river. Lots of lakes and parks.
Dallas is huge, and lots of money. Everyone I've met that has lived in Dallas didn't like it at all. Just a forewarning.
San Antonio is also growing. Not sure of it's industry though. Unfortunately lots of slums.
El Paso is becoming a slum but it's not bad. Aside from there steer clear of anywhere west Texas (including Lubbock), there's nothing out there but tumbleweed and oil derricks.
Houston is big and dirty (not as big as Dallas/Ft.W), petrochemical growth. I've been there a few times, I noticed smog.
Corpus Christi is a beach city. I go there to go to the beach/vacation. Not sure of it's growth.

I have an iPhone 5 (iOS), a Samsung Galaxy S3 (Android), and a prototype SGH-T899M (Windows Phone 8). They're all 4G LTE, and current-tech mobile SOCs. I have them all integrated through Google Voice, although I enjoy using the iPhone 5 more than the other two as an every-day device simply because of personal preference. In terms of functionality, they all quite literally do the same thing for me (the SGH-T899M tends to fall behind in terms of 3rd party applications), therefore it boils down to little things like ergonomics and the phone's physical appeal. The iPhone 5 is glass/metal and I can one-hand it (use one thumb). The Galaxy S3/SGH-T899M have nice glass screens but are plastic otherwise. They do both have a larger screen physically and in terms of resolution, but a lower DPI (the Apple retina display is fantastic). Neither of them can be one handed steadily due to their size. While I'm disappointed in the new "Apple Maps," Google has already created a Google Maps app for the iOS platform and submitted it to Apple-- it's awaiting approval. When it's approved I'll definitely be using that.
If you really like customizing/modding your device I'd recommend using Android or WP8. If you don't really care about the aforementioned, go iOS. For a while I was into customization and modding, but I believe I've grown out of it-- it was sort of a phase that got boring after a while. I always found that modding my phones (jailbreaking or rooting) were tedious and the results lukewarm at best, but that's just my opinion. One advantage to getting an iPhone will be that Apple fully restricts carrier bloatware. If you get an Android or WP8, it'll have carrier apps installed on it which you'll probably never use and they take up assets. There is the option to get the Google Nexus Phone, which won't have bloatware and you basically get a pure/virgin Android OS straight from Google along with every new release. It could take 6 months for AT&T/Verizon/T-Mobile/Sprint to roll out the newest release of Android OS (as they're busy custom-tailoring the OS to their networks, or putting their thumbs up their butts; who knows).
In the end, the device market is really competitive. Because of this, they will all do relatively the same thing at relatively the same speeds for a certain generation. It's best that you go to your carrier's store and choose the device that you enjoy using the most.

I don't know why anyone gives a shit about this. VG has been dead in everything but name for quite some time, this is just an official declaration of what we already knew.
